: binding when hubs are locked in Ben Holloway 07-31-2002, 07:41 PM ok i just finished my sas on my 94 and went to break in the front ring and pinion but ive discovered that when i lock both hubs in i get a horrible bind this is with only the hubs locked not in 4wd the front is a 5.29 unit with an e-locker, so does anybody know what the hell is going on?? it seems if i turn the wheel one way its damn near impossible to turn it back and this is while im not in motion so i dont think its the locker thanks Ben SeaBass44 07-31-2002, 07:46 PM I would start with jacking it up, on stands put it in "N" and see if itr spins free, then go from there. Ben Holloway 07-31-2002, 07:50 PM well if i unlock the hub and put it in 4wd it drives around just fine, its just when i lock the hubs it, it will move in a straight line but wont turn worth a damn Ben SeaBass44 07-31-2002, 07:56 PM Originally posted by Ben Holloway well if i unlock the hub and put it in 4wd it drives around just fine, its just when i lock the hubs it, it will move in a straight line but wont turn worth a damn Ben sounds like the locker is "on" making a spool, that would be hard....unlock one hub. Ben Holloway 07-31-2002, 08:08 PM still does it, go figure i wonder if it has anything to do with the hubs Ben crash 07-31-2002, 11:05 PM WHen does this happen? On pavement? anthony_harris 08-01-2002, 01:29 AM Maybe the electric locker is stuck in the on postion, with my welded front it is hard to turn with the hubs locked in, on pavement when not moving.

Also try the different combinations. I didn't know you where installing a e-locker?? NICE | |
